GM Technical Center

Experimentation with ceramic glazed brick construction was undertaken especially at Saarinen's request. Saarinen said he wanted the Tech Center to resemble autumn leaves reflecting the late afternoon sun, so he selected brick colors of crimson, orange, yellow, blue and nutrias of olive, slate and black. In all, 26 colors of glazed bricks were used. (4/15/2011)
